Discover what a counsellor does

A counsellor is a trained professional who provides emotional support, guidance, and practical coping strategies to individuals, couples, or groups facing personal challenges.

They help people navigate issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship problems, grief, and life transitions. Through active listening, empathy, and evidence-based techniques, counsellors empower clients to gain self-awareness, build resilience, and improve their overall mental health and wellbeing.
